“When coming to a stop in the vehicle, the 2019 Jeep Cherokee (bought used at 52,000mi) at 59,000mi now powers off randomly. Apparently this is due to a software issue that was recalled, but I do not see my VIN available for service. This is unacceptable as I am afraid of a newish car turning off while on the road.”
NHTSA complaint #11387811, filed 2021-01, 59,000 miles“A couple times now my Jeep has shut down all electrical spell propulsion everything in the middle of traffic while driving while slowing down and it's very dangerous especially this morning when I was in an intersection with a semi bearing barreling down on me and I had no steering no brakes no propulsion nothing then the d for drive on the dash started blinking all servicing is up to date and now there is a warning light”
NHTSA complaint #11387173, filed 2021-01, 30,000 miles“For the third time, the vehicle has lost power at highway speed. It starts coasting and the motor runs but depressing the gas pedal has no effect. The last time it happened, we were on a curving mountain road and almost got run over by an 18 wheeler. Third time this has happened and the dealer has not been able to fix. This has to stop, brand new car stalling at highway speeds. Each time we were at highway speeds. Multiple lights come on the dashboard, see attached photo.”
NHTSA complaint #11192768, filed 2019-03, 9,100 miles“Driving on a local road I lost ability to accelerate. It sounded like the engine was no longer running. Luckily was able to pull over. After turning off the car I could not turn the car back on.”
NHTSA complaint #11342640, filed 2020-08, 5,000 miles“My vehicle stalls upon acceleration z I've been told it was bad gas as well as needing an oil change, but the problem continues. Consumer stated my current mileage is right at 15,000. I first noticed the stall issue shortly after purchasing the vehicle in july of 2018. I received a notice of a recall that could cause the vehicle to stall. It required reprogramming and that was done in october. I have noticed the stalling at various times since then. My last oil change was in april at just under 10,000. …”
